Testo The First Vietnamese War

You gave a gift to me

In my young age

You sent me oversea

And put the fear in me
And I ask what for now

Why me, why war?

And I ask what for now

Vietnam War?

Spend my time there by the shore



Oh we got off that boat

Charlies everywhere
A lotta killin' and dyin'

And no one seems to care

I ask what for now

We say hell no

And I ask what for

Why me, why war?

And I spend my time there by the shore



Sixty thousand men died

While you were here

You came into our homes

And you took our kids

And you ask for more now

For this new war

And you ask for more now

Vietnam War

I spend my time there by the shore
